TikTok CEO, Shou Chew, faced over four hours of intense questioning from US lawmakers on Thursday regarding the accountability and transparency of the social media platform.

The highly popular video app has raised concerns among Capitol Hill officials who fear it could potentially funnel users’ personal information to the Chinese government. 

As a result, there have been increasing calls for the app to be banned or for TikTok to be spun off from its Chinese parent company, ByteDance.

Lawmakers demanded answers from Chew during the hearing, seeking clarity on the company's data privacy policies and its relationship with the Chinese government. 

The hearing also explored the possibility of TikTok being used as a tool for censorship and propaganda.

Many of the lawmakers who attended expressed their concerns over the potential threat TikTok poses to national security, urging Chew to take more responsibility for the platform's content and users.

In response to the hearing, Today FM's US correspondent, Toni Waterman, spoke with Lloyd Burr on Friday evening about the focus of the lawmakers’ questions.

New Zealand's hate speech laws have taken centre stage this week as the controversial anti-trans-rights activist, Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull, better known as Posie Parker, plans to hold rallies in Auckland and Wellington over the weekend. 

However, Parker's visit has sparked a heated debate, with many arguing she should not be allowed into the country, as she could incite violence.

Posie Parker has gained notoriety for her outspoken views, which many consider being transphobic. 

Her rallies, planned for Saturday and Sunday, are expected to draw significant crowds, with counter-protests already organised in response.

The issue of hate speech has once again come to the fore, with many questioning where the line should be drawn. 

To shed some light on the matter, Lloyd Burr spoke to Dylan Asafo, a senior law lecturer at the University of Auckland, on Friday afternoon.
